So go ahead and apply, they have no standards.

The standard is getting lower and lower, throw them to any case/technical interview, i am quite certain less than 30% will pass it

The only consulting firms with no private u fresh grads are MBB. Then again in those firms, first year associates from NUS/SMU/NTU are also minuscule cuz majority in the Singa office are from target b-schools like Wharton.

lol charlotte is in CDO.

McKinsey Digital considered consulting or implementation?

Not going to happen. Implementation provides the bulk of revenue but it is labour-heavy work, margins are low. In a ACN system implementation project there can be as many as 150-200 offshored indians working on a SG project.

They can be generating the "hard work", but value in the market is just not there.

Even in MBB, your implementation practice is always less prestigious. In B-school, the choice for most would be McK generalist > BCG or Bain generalist > 2nd tier generalist > everything else in between > McK implementation. That would tell you where they stand.

MBB needs implementation to gain steady, consistent revenue. Strat is just too volatile - short projects with a lot of BD efforts required. But will implementation be as prestigious? probably not.
